yesterday president and speaker john boehner met at the white house. a spokesperson says today discussions with the white house are taking place, but we have no detail to share about the substance of those conversations, but he did add republicans are waiting for spending cuts proposals from the president to get a deal on the fiscal cliff, but if you republicans now say that maybe the best strategy for them is to accept some higher tax rates the president is demanding, get that out of the way and then come back entitlement reform early next year before the president asked for an increase in the debt ceiling. republicans will have a little more leverage with that. >> there's a hardening on the republican side. we will not raise the debt ceiling. iwe will not let obama borrow ay more money for any american congress borrow any more money until we fix this country from becoming grease and that that rs significant entitlement reform. >> the senator is not one of those supporting higher tax rates on wealthier families, he favors capping tax deductions on the

the speaker of the house john boehner. let's listen in. >> the tax hikes that the president campaigned on, that had more stimulus spending then cuts. and indefinite, infinite increase on the debt limit forever. four days ago, we offered a serious proposal based on testimony of president clinton's former chief of staff. since then, there has been no counter offer from the white house. reports indicate that the president has adopted a strategy to slow walk our economy right to the edge of the fiscal cliff. instead of reforming the tax code, the president wants to raise tax rates. even if the president that the tax rate hike that he wanted, understand that we will continue to see trillion dollar deficits for as far as the eye can see. washington has a spending3 problem, not a revenue problem. if the president does not agree with our proposal, i believe he has an obligation to families and small businesses to offer a plan of his own. we are ready and eager to talk to the president about such plan. >> you did speak with the pre

john boehner nervous going into the weekend. long term still very good buy, holding above the 100 day moving average. we're seeing record amounts of gold going into etfs. big players are still very bullish on this market and we're hanging in there. let's move into the oil market a little bit as well. the oil market has been struggling. big supplies. we did get a bounce off the jobs report. we're back down a little bit today. and considering the fact that yes, we're way oversupplied in gasoline right now and there's a lot of supply of oil, you still have to worry about the concerns about the middle east heating up. going into a weekend i'm amazed we're not getting more of a rally off of that. back to you melissa and adam. melissa: that's a great point. phil flynn, thanks so much. adam: we have breaking news right now and this is of verying ford. ford is recalling 19,000 of 2013 fusion sedans for another -- this is the second recall for this vehicle according to "the wall street journal" here's the issue. it has to do with a codin

it was interesting this weekend to hear, for example, john boehner on with chris l wallace on fox news saying we're nowhere. shouldn't they counter with the president even if they think it's a ridiculous offer? >> if i'm advising the republicans, which i'm not, i'd over a republican plan that's progrowth, pro job creation, get rid of grover, and say this is what we're for, mr. president. here's the plan. i would say let's bargain in good faith. >> the sunday talk shows, geithner saying republicans need to deal with it, and others it's a stalemate. do you think that's for show though? it seems like the deals in washington, at this time of the year happen at the 11th hour, last three years especially for taxes. >> could have been for taxes, but,,and the but is very important, if there's a frame work december 31st at midnight, it will be just that. the markets will, i think, react predictly, and that's not positive. if there's a recession because there's not a tax plan, we'll be hurt. >> that's the wild card; right? how the markets reagent to it because we don't know. >> we don't. >> impo

so he is turning to john boehner to say why don't you do what we couldn't do or won't do? this is really amazing to watch this administration. presidents are supposed to lead, take the initiative, persuade others, create a national consensus. what does he do? he goes out to a toy, he goes out to a toy factory and wants another quarter trillion dollars in spending. i can't imagine why people are somewhat, well suspicious of our politicians given that. melissa: when you talk to people, they're so frustrated by what they see. they want to tune it out. turn back to their family in their own community. it is hard not to gauge. >> let's be real honest. that's what they have already done. that's why we're in this condition. we saw the president even lose 7 1/2 million votes from 2008 to this past november. we've got a lot of people retreating and becoming more insular instead of being engaged. melissa: yeah. >> republicans walking around whining about this president instead of doing something. the republicans were beaten because they doesn't do anything. they didn't have a ground
